I’m in asset management sales and keen to accelerate my learning in alternatives (private equity, private debt, real assets, liquid and semi-liquid alternatives) so I can have more productive discussions with clients. 1) What are some good news platforms to stay updated on alternatives space in Asia? 2) Besides CAIA, any educational platforms to learn more about alternatives?

In your line of work, I imagine you could also benefit from brushing up on how managers and wealth firms are making Alts funds accessible to individual investors. Cerulli, Broadridge, possibly also Citi Business Advisory Services all have white papers on this topic. You might also want to read anything you can find about iCapital. In general, though, Preqin has some valuable primer materials on Alternative Investments, and many of those resources are free.

I feel like every company lies about “working your way up.” You’re never allowed to blatantly say that you don’t like your position and you’d like to transition to HR or Finance. It’s almost as if once you get in claims, you’re stuck.

If you’re a manager and you see an employee that wants to branch out into a different department, why would you keep them boxed in for 2+ years?

Are there some background mechanics that I’m missing?
